    A SHORT HISTORY OF ALABAMA AGRICULTURE, 18201945 by Dr. Dwayne Cox, University Archivist  
    http://www.lib.auburn.edu/archive/aghy/alag.htm
    
    Extractions: ALABAMA AGRICULTURE, 1820-1945 From statehood (1819) until the end of World War II, nothing influenced Alabama's economic, social, and political life more than agriculture. Before the Civil War, climate, soil, and market demand fostered cotton cultivation, which brought with it slavery and a paternalistic social order. After the war, white and black tenant farmers replaced slave labor, the price of cotton dropped, and grass-roots agrarian unrest followed. Government and business interests combined to gain control of agricultural policy during the early twentieth century, which they retained through the end of World War II. By that time, mechanization, rural to urban migration, and crop diversification had altered Alabama agriculture, but farm and forest products remained central to the state's economy and those who had an economic interest in them still had a political voice as strong as any. Extensive white settlement of Alabama followed the War of 1812 and the defeat of the Creek Nation. Most of the settlers came from North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia, pushed by land exhausted through the over-cultivation of cotton and drawn by the rich soil of the Tennessee Valley and the Black Belt. They brought with them slave labor and the plantation system, which were readily transplanted in Alabama. Steady demand for cotton made this product the nation's leading export during the first half of the nineteenth century and solidified the planter elite's sense of self-importance. On the eve of the Civil War, however, Alabama was only one generation removed from the frontier and most of the state's farmers owned few, if any, slaves.

    Extractions: Alabama detailed state guide Alabama ranked 23rd among the 50 states in farm marketing in 2001, with $3.5 billion, of which only $705 million came from crops. There was considerable diversity in Alabama's earliest agriculture. By the mid-19th century, however, cotton had taken over, and production of other crops dropped so much that corn and other staples, even work animals, were often imported. In 1860, cotton was grown in every county, and one-crop agriculture had already worn out much of Alabama's farmland. Diversification began early in the 20th century, a trend accelerated by the destructive effects of the boll weevil on cotton growing. In 2002, only 590,000 acres (238,800 hectares) were planted in cotton, compared to 3,500,000 acres (1,400,000 hectares) in 1930. As of 2002 there were some 47,000 farms in Alabama, occupying approximately 8.9 million acres (3.6 million hectares), or roughly 30% of the state's land area. Soybeans and livestock are raised in the Black Belt; peanuts in the southeast; vegetables, livestock, and timber in the southwest; and cotton and soybeans in the Tennessee River Valley. In 2002, Alabama ranked 3rd in the US in production of peanuts, with 379,250,000 lb (172,024,000 kg), worth about $63,714,000. Other crops included soybeans, 3,720,000 bushels, $19,902,000; corn for fresh market, 102,000 hundredweight (4,630,000 kg), $1,734,000; wheat, 2,400,000 bushels, $6,960,000; tomatoes for fresh market, 322,000 hundredweight (14,605,000 kg), $7,438,000; sweet potatoes, 624,000 hundredweight (28,304,000 kg), $11,400,000; and pecans, 7,000,000 lb (3,175,500 kg), $4,039,000. The 2002 cotton crop of 575,000 bales was valued at $117,300,000.

In 2003 the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs (ADECA) recognized the need to assist the agriculture industry in Alabama in coping with rising energy costs. The ADECA Energy Division initiated the Alabama Agriculture Energy Program by establishing an Agriculture Energy Steering Committee, composed of representatives from major agricultural interests in the state. This group came together and worked with Energy Division staff to develop a program that is making a positive impact on agriculture in Alabama. Initially, a Request for Proposals (RFP) was issued every other year to solicit proposals for energy efficiency technology and technique demonstration and renewable energy projects that have the potential to significantly improve the energy efficiency of agricultural operations in the state. Eligible applicants included state and local government entities, non-profit corporations, and public colleges and universities. Individual grant awards were capped at $50,000 each.

    Extractions: John Augustus Walker Murals In 1939, ten tempera color murals were commissioned by the Alabama Cooperative Extension Service to be part of an exhibit at the Alabama State Fair. The ten murals, titled "Historical Panorama of Alabama Agriculture," painted by John Augustus Walker of Mobile, depict a colorful visual representation of Alabama's agricultural history. Following the fair, the murals were exhibited at the Louisiana State Fair and eventually were stored and forgotten in the attic of the state Extension headquarters building on the campus of Auburn University. In 1983, the ten murals were discovered, cleaned, repaired, and put on public view. After the brief exhibit, the murals were returned to their dusty attic, residing there for the next 20 years. In 2006, the Alabama Cooperative Extension System rediscovered the historically significant New Deal era murals, and they became a focal point of Auburn University's sesquicentennial celebration. The present home of Walker's murals is Auburn University's Ralph Brown Draughon Library. A come-to-the-fair reception featuring typical midway treats such as popcorn and peanuts beckoned visitors on the AU campus for a Saturday afternoon football game to stop by Foy Student Union Gallery to view the murals. Ready to greet guests were, from left, C. Bruce Dupree, Extension Communications art specialist; John Walker and wife Ann, the son and daughter-in-law of John Augustus Walker; Carol Whatley, Director of Extension Communications and Marketing; and Gaines Smith, Extension Director.
